    Questionable Content: Proportional Response
    https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4640

    Do not upset the unstable young lady with a highly weaponized space
    station at her beck and call. And more than one person needs to know
    her safe word.

    Oh, I bet her father (who lives on the station) will intervene.
    And if not, Station itself will stop the attack; it's not stupid
    and it's known Hannelore all her life.

    (And she is a lot saner now than when we first met her.)

    So what is the future going to be like when Elon Musk's children own a
    space station or five and about a thousand space ships ? Will they
    weaponize those space stations ?

    That was Station saying "Very good, ma'am." ! Station is an AI and is programmed to follow Hannelore's orders.

    But you know it's not going to. Not unless Jeph has decided to
    throw in the sponge and take up oil painting or ceramics or
    something.

    That "Very Good, ma'am" had a very "I'll get right on that" vibe to
    it, to my "ear."
